Rolling over

Rolling over is the scarest thing we have encountered with Addie. I have heard many frightening stories of babies passing away around 5 months due to SIDS. So when Addie rolled over in her crib while she was swaddled, I freaked!

(My intention of this blog is not to scary anyone but to let you know, you are not alone when your child gets this age and you worry about the same thing.)

I posted a status on facebook asking other moms for advise on what to do at night time. I tried her in a sleep sack but she had too much freedom and didn't like it. She cried so hard she got herself all worked up. A couple moms suggested just swaddling her from the waist down and leaving her arms out so she could roll but also roll back. It absolutely worked like a charm. She slept really good! Right now she is going to bed around 9:30p or 10p and waking up around 7a or 7:30a. I love that she is a great sleeper! I am truley blessed.

Addie is also starting to grab and hold onto objects. Grandma Vilt brought her a small book when she visited and Addie can grab it. Super cute! It looks like she is actually reading it!

How cute is that picture!
